MONTGOMERY, AL (WSFA) -

The puppy that caught the attention of many Montgomerians has a new home.

Officials at the Montgomery Humane Society say Twiggy was officially adopted Monday.

Twiggy, a Shepard mix, was found nearly starved to death in early April. Originally weighing in at just 18 pounds, Twiggy was nursed back to health and now weighs in at a much better 42 pounds.

The Montgomery Humane Society was responsible for collecting donations to help rehabilitate Twiggy.
